    Dorm Life

    What to do for fun

    Socializing with new/future students in the lounge/commons area is one of the best things to do on campus. The mall is about 5 minutes from the campus as well as a wide variety of restaurants to choose from. Their are plenty of fun activities to do while being off campus.

    Am learning a lot

    I had great professors and thought Ivy Tech was great with having assistance around if needed such as; tutors for nearly everything and professors that help as much as possible. All of my professors emailed me back within the day when i had questions or concerns. I learned quite a bit in my Comm 102 class, my professor was fabulous and always made the class fun. My English 111 class had a wonderful professor as well; he taught us how writing is extremely important, as well as making class fun.
    Am enjoying being here

    I enjoy being at Ivy Tech because it is a clean environment that has all different types of people. I enjoy being at Ivy Tech because you can walk through the halls and talk to your professors and feel completely comfortable. Ivy Tech always had people on hand to make you feel safe and help you when needed.
    Bang for the buck

    I think Ivy Tech was great for the price for each semester. There are a lot of people who say Ivy Tech isn't as good as a State College and i highly disagree. Ivy Tech Students might pay less for tuition but get the same education with more hands on time then a State College. I was great to only have at most twenty to twenty five students in my class, as well as nice to be able to ask questions to my professor during class time. Ivy Tech has great opportunities for financial aid as well as pay plans to help students that need it. Being one of those students I can say it is really helpful.
    Tips for prospective students

    Some tips i could give would be is to always make it to class, no matter if your late or sick your teachers will work with you if you just show up. Another tip would be take your general classes first and figure out what you would like your major to be and if you would like to stay at Ivy Tech. Another tip I would have is always do your homework, which is a gimmick, but most students slack off their first semester and play catch up the rest.
    Great for these types of students

    Ivy Tech could be great for any person, any race, and any age and make that extremely clear from day one. In my classes I had students of all race and ages and never once was any singled out. Ivy Tech is great for any student, even if they want to transfer somewhere.
